Do you think that you'd need some sort of apology When you come to me While I'm still dreaming? Do you think this could make an awkward autopsy Because I'm too dizzy to be Agreeing? Caught on the hook You played it right by the book. You took your time And little of mine and now I'm the one Left leaving. And screaming And trying, But not really believing In anything but a bereaved blessing, All forgotten and festering Though unnoticed, Still attesting To it's wasteland existence. Porous, dry and without pigment Like the skin of an overgrown pigglet Time for slaughter, Courtesy of the indignant. In death too ***** To be a meat worth eating, Your glory days Of **** wallowing wonder were fleeting, And you knew it from day one But it wasn't till near seventeen You began to come undone, Got a little high strung And grew a knife for a tongue Plunged straight into the heart With snide remarks and whispers Of text messages Left off the charts And I'm left in the dark To inside jokes Of feigned friendship I suppose I'm waiting For what you forgot to mention. Yes, You've always had good intentions Just ... no direction And little discretion I'm sorry, I'm sorry... But I must change direction. Cem 5.4.15
